Another transbrake thread, & tires

Thanks for the responses. I think the problem I'm having is we changed the suspension so I can bracket race the car and run it flat out. Moved the instant center quite a bit forward, and can actually pull a 1.15 60', launching at 3400 rpms, riding the bar the whole time. Have had the car down to 7.99 flat out, which I'm told is not possible in a Davis car. Any higher launch RPM, and it just rides the bar forever. Thinking about taking the suspension back to the way it was, and just bracket race on the throttle stop and see what happens, but would like to explore other options first.
